Maybe you can get a satellite sucking dish that will pull my books up to Canada, after I read them. <BR/><BR/>Jessica,<BR/><BR/>Me either. I think the first school shooting was at Pearl, Mississippi H.S. I've been to that school's campus. It's fairly new, beautiful and has some pretty extensive facilities. It's hard to believe something so horrifying occurred there.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-31190903830327990592009-01-09T23:27:00.000-06:002009-01-09T23:27:00.000-06:00oh my gosh.

You might like to read it, as well. Hope you enjoy the book! It's a hard read, but I think it's a good one.<BR/><BR/>Darby,<BR/><BR/>That's what I was thinking. It really is about her real-life drama and it's written from a Christian perspective but is not a book specifically about Christianity. Okie doke. I think I may keep the length of time between giveaways a little shorter because it looks like the sign-ups are dropping off. Then, maybe we'll get to the next rounds sooner! :)Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-60589790028453130502009-01-08T19:55:00.000-06:002009-01-08T19:55:00.000-06:00I think this book should go into "Drama in real li...I think this book should go into "Drama in real life".

We're not far from the location of the very first school shooting -- Pearl High School is in the Jackson area and we've been there for marching contests. It's got a big, gorgeous campus and is so, so pretty. It's hard to imagine such a beautiful place was the scene of a crime. <BR/><BR/>I do think Missy Jenkins is an interesting person. While I don't pay attention to the news and hadn't heard about her specifically, I think it's pretty amazing that she was able to say, "I forgive Michael," when she was still in a drugged-up haze and she continues to feel as if forgiveness is part of the reason she has healed mentally and moved on with her life. Very cool.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-20404779298825548572009-01-08T15:48:00.000-06:002009-01-08T15:48:00.000-06:00Wow, this book sounds incredible.

And I have to admit anything having to do with school shootings gets me shaky (I guess that probably happens to a lot of people). But there was a school shooting at my high school (years after I was there). The shooter was the son of the girl who babysat my brother and I as kids. Very small town. Very surreal. So very beyond sad.Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429881953804634592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-17135228675321512752009-01-08T15:46:00.000-06:002009-01-08T15:46:00.000-06:00Hi Jenn!Yep, can't lose track of you.
